NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2005

(Unaudited)

NOTE A — BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared by First Equity Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present such information. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, certain information and footnote disclosures, including a description of significant accounting policies normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for any subsequent quarter or the entire fiscal year ending December 31, 2005.

NOTE B – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”), established a single accounting model for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets including discontinued operations. This statement requires that the operations related to segments that have been sold, or segments that are intended to be sold, be presented as discontinued operations in the statement of operations for all periods presented, and the segments intended to be sold are to be designated as “held for sale” on the balance sheet. In the event of a future asset sale, the company is required to reclassify portions of previously reported operations to discontinued operations within the Statements of Operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2004, income from discontinued operations relates to the disposition of subsidiaries providing management services.

In May 2004, the Company sold the subsidiaries of the Company that provide management services for $250,000 cash and a note receivable in the amount of $1,822,540. In the quarter ended March 31, 2004, the Company recorded an impairment of $37,931,116, representing the write down of certain assets of the those two subsidiaries that provided the management services to the value agreed to between the related party buyer and seller. The primary asset written down was the investment in preferred stock of an affiliate.

NOTE B – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS — continued

The impairment loss resulted in the generation of a deferred tax asset of approximately $13,000,000 for which a valuation allowance of the entire amount has been provided since management cannot be assured of the utilization of the deferred tax asset.

The results of discontinued operations of the subsidiaries consisted of the following for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and September 30, 2004:

		Three months ended Sep 30,								Nine months ended Sep 30,

Net income from discontinued operations		$	—			$	—			$	—			$	45,715

NOTE C – REVERSE STOCK SPLIT

On June 7, 2004, the members of the Board of Directors of FEPI proposed and recommended to the stockholders a reverse-split on a 1-for-10 basis of the shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, without any adjustment to the par value per share, and without any reduction in the authorized number of shares of Common Stock at the same par value. The proposal was approved by the shareholders and became effective July 12, 2004. The share amounts in the accompanying financial statements and notes give effect to this reverse split as if it occurred at the beginning of earliest period presented.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations

Three months ended September 30, 2005 compared to three months ended September 30, 2004

Currently the Company’s primary assets are interest-bearing securities. Revenues from operations in 2005 were the same as the prior year. Total operating expenses decreased to $6,584 in 2005 from $26,720 in 2004. The decrease in operating expenses was due to lower legal and professional fees in 2005.

Nine months ended September 30, 2005 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2004

Revenues from operations increased to $180,071 from prior year of $120,315 due to higher interest income as a result of nine full months in 2005 of interest income from the note receivable received in the second quarter of 2004. Total operating expenses decreased to $17,893 in 2005 from $46,280 in 2004. The decrease in operating expenses was due to lower legal and professional fees in 2005. The discontinued operations represent the income from the management contracts of the company that were sold in May 2004. Also, the impairment loss in 2004 is not present in 2005.

Financial Condition and Liquidity

At September 30, 2005, the Company had total assets of $2,414,164 compared to $2,631,209 at December 31, 2004. Cash and cash equivalents increased to $6,624 at September 30, 2005 from $4,621 at December 31, 2004. Total liabilities were $2,069,713 versus $2,448,936 at December 31, 2004. The decrease in assets results from the collection of interest receivable which was in turn used to pay liabilities.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Based upon their most recent evaluation, which was completed as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Acting Principal Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at September 30, 2005 to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports within the time period specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2005, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
